Oceanfront Beach House - Spectacular Views & Privacy

Beautiful What you dream about when you think of VRBO. Beautiful. Private. Fun and lovely

Beautiful home, steps away from beach, great location! Our family of five stayed at this cozy beach house to celebrate a Hawaii Christmas-it was perfect; great location (convenient to major attractions-Waimea, Poipu, Hanalei), well stocked (spices, kitchen tools, beach towels, boogie boards, toiletries, towels, etc), and amazing views of the beach, which is only steps away. It was the most unbelievable way to create family memories!

The ocean at your doorstep My wife and I spent our 25th anniversary at this wonderful house in Anahola. The house is beautiful and has recently been renovated, which was done quite nicely. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The bathrooms were quite nice and it was great having 2 for the two of us to split as the first bathroom was a little small. The living room was amazing to just sit in and enjoy the ocean breeze and views. The bed was super comfortable and I slept better on it than in my own! Of course, the star of the show was the back porch. We literally sat out there for hours and took in the beauty of Kauai. The sunrise in the morning was glorious. The moon at night was amazing. I’m literally missing it badly as I sit and write this review:-( I would say my only negative was the road construction. While we were able to navigate around the inconvenience, we basically had to plan our day around the schedule of the road work. Obviously, none of this is the owners fault, but just something I feel a potential renter should be aware of as it seems the project will probably last quite some time. One other suggestion I have is that I felt the plants in the back of the property needed to be trimmed down a bit in order to see the scenery a little better and also allow easier access down to the beach in front of the house. It felt a bit like jungle trekking to get down there. All-in-all we loved our stay in this sublime location and would do it all over again!

Disappointing host Overall the property is fine. Images are true to picture. Because it’s so close to the ocean, we found that the front porch and front of the house was always coated with sea mist. Just something to be aware of. The main living area always felt damp because of this. The main reason for our mediocre review though is the host. We booked this in Dec’23 for a June’24 stay. On the day of our arrival, we received a message that the only road in and out of the property was destroyed in a winter storm and would be closed 8am-3pm during the weekdays. Having two teens and a very active vacation planned, that was disappointing but we thought that we would try to work with the inconvenience. In day 3 of our stay, after having to move our car every day before 8am or lugging our stuff to the car and not being able to return midday easily, we were informed by the construction crew that the water would be off 8am-3pm. That was it for us. No ingress or egress to the house, and now no water. We reached out to the host and he agreed upon a one night refund and we found last minute $$$$ accommodations for the final two nights of our stay. It’s been now 6 weeks and no refund has been issued and the host is unresponsive. I’m sad about the stay. We spent a great deal of money for this house and the three days we were there were stressful. Damp house, doors that don’t close all of the way so we had flies constantly, and then unable to get to/from the house anytime we wanted. Disappointing.

Wonderful stay Super location, on the water. House was clean and beautifully outfitted. Kitchen well supplied and stocked. Property owner was extremely responsive and helpful!

Excellent house in an excellent location We loved staying at this house. The location is spectacular! The house was a perfect fit for our family of four. David was a great host, and showed us a couple secret spots to hit the beach a see waterfalls. Five stars! We will certainly return.
